just got done with team matching and Grecruiter shared numbers today, i got FB numbers last week, e/t5

G: 200 620k 60k sign on
F: 195 500k 50k sign on

FB definitely felt low ball, google knew i had an offer from FB, G recruiter asked me for an email with numbers but i didnt have it, so i showed her the congrats email i got from FB over hangouts and that seemed to do the trick

google is gcp, not a huge fan but recruiter said i can easily transfer after a year

both initial offers before any negotiation, should i negotiate with google first, then share with FB, or share G numbers with FB, have a better offer then take it to G? does FB only match G or can they beat? only worked at one place since graduation and it was a returning intern offer so not sure how to negotiate

YoE: 5
TC: 350k post covid valuation and no bonus

    Congratulations ๐ŸŽ‰
    Top band for E5 is 205k/700k/100k. I got this offer. See if you can leverage Google's offer and ask for E5 top band.

    Great job on achieving this with just 5 Yoe!

    OP
    Update: about to sign with FB, they came back with 200 700 80, could have pushed for 100k sign on but recruiter said they need better offer from google, I really liked the HM at google (the team not as much) and heโ€™s been helping me push so didnโ€™t want to bug him again.

    Excited but a little scared about the wlb... Airbnb was pretty chill, rarely had to do more than 50 hours a week in long stretches

      Thanks, I think it might be related to my interview perf, I did really well with all interviews at G and pretty much knew I got it, where at FB I struggled a bit with system design

  • Congratulations OP. Pre-Covid top E5 offer was 210/800/100. Try for that.

    Another thing to note is getting from L5 -> L6 in both companies. From the Blind posts for the same amount of effort the career progression in G seems slow compared to FB. My take would be go with FB where you have tons of opportunities for team selection, fast career trajectory if you are willing to put an effort and good rewards even if you canโ€™t secure the top E5 offer.
